Janet maitland steps down from role at shaping futures

Janet Maitland, UK ambassador for Shaping Futures has announced that she is stepping down from her role due to ill health. Starting her work with the organisation back in 2011, Janet began as a project volunteer before heading up the UK Shaping Futures initiative for Schwarzkopf Professional as UK ambassador. During her time with the project Janet has worked tirelessly to ensure the volunteers and the trainees were equipped and supported with all training needed for successful outcomes for all. Working with the Schwarzkopf education team to deliver training in India, Jordan, Vietnam and most recently the Philippines, Janet has helped to roll out the opportunity of a new future to under privileged children, equipping them with skills for life. “I have loved this period of my life more than I can say," says Janet. "It has been so rewarding to see young people transformed by learning and care that is shown through Shaping Futures. It has been an honour, a privilege and I know this project for which I hold the most deep passion in great shape and in safe hands.” Kay Brady head of education for Schwarzkopf Professional says, "As Janet leaves this role as UK Ambassador for Schwarzkopf Professional’s Shaping Futures, it is difficult to put into words the incredible values, passion, time, energy, motivation and drive that she poured into Shaping Futures." "Janet partnered us here in the UK to make Shaping Futures a leading light across the world. It is with huge sadness but the most enormous level of gratitude that Janet steps down to focus on personal challenges facing her and as our friend and business partner she has our enduring thanks and support."
